Major Academic Plan (MAP) Why study geology? Geology is the science of planet Earth. Geologists use elements of chemistry, physics, biology and mathematics in interpreting the evolution of the earth and its life forms. Applied geology addresses exploration of earth resources, environmental quality and hazards and practical understanding of the planet on which we live.
